不知道第幾刷~a dense analysis that acknowledges asian american cultural production as a counter-site to american contradictory nation-state imperatives and pays a particular attention on asian american female who suffers multiple layers of suppressions; provides insight on the larger question of agency, subject-formation and cultural identity (cue Hall).
評分美國曆史移民政策造就Asian American particularity。從學術角度或社會運動角度看都是很棒的source。

評分不錯的研究,Lowe依靠對於Asian American群體的文化話語和實踐的考察,揭露瞭美國national culture的神話。在清算殖民/帝國主義曆史遺産在當代文化政治中遺緒時,思考瞭批判性主體建立的可能。這本書的基本方法時馬剋思主義的,Williams的文化政治唯物主義、Gramsci的霸權理論、Althusser的意識形態理論都運用的相當成熟,充分揭示瞭Asian American這一身份其實是族群、性彆、階級諸多話語維度交匯的場域。
In "Immigrant Acts", Lisa Lowe argues that understanding Asian immigration to the United States is fundamental to understanding the racialised economic and political foundations of the nation. Lowe discusses the contradictions whereby Asians have been included in the workplaces and markets of the U.S. nation-state, yet, through exclusion laws and bars from citizenship, have been distanced from the terrain of national culture. Lowe argues that a national memory haunts the conception of Asian American, persisting beyond the repeal of individual laws and sustained by U.S. wars in Asia, in which the Asian is seen as the perpetual immigrant, as the 'foreigner-within'. In "Immigrant Acts", she argues that rather than attesting to the absorption of cultural difference into the universality of the national political sphere, the Asian immigrant - at odds with the cultural, racial, and linguistic forms of the nation - displaces the temporality of assimilation. Distance from the American national culture constitutes Asian American culture as an alternative site that produces cultural forms materially and aesthetically in contradiction with the institutions of citizenship and national identity. Rather than a sign of a 'failed' integration of Asians into the American cultural sphere, this critique preserves and opens up different possibilities for political practice and coalition across racial and national borders. In this uniquely interdisciplinary study, Lowe examines the historical, political, cultural, and aesthetic meanings of immigration in relation to Asian Americans. Extending the range of Asian American critique, "Immigrant Acts" will interest readers concerned with race and ethnicity in the United States, American cultures, immigration, and trans-nationalism.
